Hi, maintainer of dat here. We're working on the first release now. The first use case is tabular data (a large volume of small rows), but we'll be adding a content-addressable blob store (for big binary attachments) on top for the beta, as well as some fun p2p (webrtc data channel) powered sync stuff (will be somewhat similar to BitTorrent sync) to maximize download speeds and let universities seed big scientific datasets.

if people are interested in the p2p blob store, poke me to write it faster. github.com/jbenet

great work so far in an area I'm really interested. I'm especially interested in the synchronisation and transformation modules, how are they coming along? sync is an issue that distinguishes you from the work of the libre api project, but did you look at that project at all for the sharing aspect because I think they do that really well (but sync they do still with kill and load). also, did you look at all at git assistant for sync?
